ICAN, English Speaking Club in Minsk, invites speakers of English to take part in the English Pronunciation Contest on April 23, 2019.
Manner and matter/ form and content/ form and substance – all these relate to one of the fundamental philosophical oppositions. Yes, our communication is all about conveying a message, but the way we do that affects the process of communication so much that it often determines the success. The English say, "Fine feathers make fine birds." In terms of communication it means that is the speaker's sounds are not intelligible, the whole message will be wastes, for no one will be able to hear it.
Good pronunciation in a foreign language does not come but itself. To succeed, one needs to know the correct position of the articulators and practice enough to make the movements habitual. The purpose of the contest is to encourage the participants to work on pronunciation.
The contest will include three tasks:
1. Pronunciation of unfamiliar words with transcription
2. Pronunciation of a tong twister
3. Reading a passage
The winner will get a CERTIFICATE + a PRIZE: one month 50% discount + a souvenir.
You can find the resources on the web-site of ICAN club.
Please, sign up before midnight on Monday April 22, 2019 by clicking the button on this page or purchase your ticket now here. It will be a bit more economical.
